Abstract excerpt
Two alleles at the major histocompatibility complex (MHC)-linked locus cim determine "gain and loss" changes in the rat RT1.Aa class I molecule which affect its structure both as an alloantigen and as a restriction element. Alleles at the cim locus also influence the post-translational modification of RT1.Aa. These effects may reflect the participation of the cim gene product in the processes of peptide loading...
